Record your vehicle’s identification number 1, engine serial number 2, and key number 3 in the spaces provided. Remove the spare key and store it in a safe place. An ignition key can be duplicated only by ordering a POLARIS key blank (using your key number) and mating it with one of your existing keys. The ignition switch must be replaced if all keys are lost.

Improper use, maintenance, or modification of this vehicle can lead to serious injury or death.

Require proper use of your vehicle. Do not allow anyone to operate your vehicle or ride as a passenger unless they are properly instructed and you are sure they are willing to ride responsibly. To prevent unauthorized use, always remove the ignition key when the vehicle is not in use.

Any modifications or installation of non-POLARIS-approved accessories could increase the risk of injury. While you may find aftermarket products similar in design and quality to POLARIS accessories, recognize that some aftermarket accessories or modifications are not suitable because of potential safety hazards to you or others. It is never appropriate to install any additional seating.

Check with the manufacturer to determine any potential effect of a modification or accessory on the safe use of your vehicle. You are responsible for injuries related to modifications to the vehicle. Modifications or accessories may:

• Damage machine components - especially modifications that increase speed or power.

• Make the vehicle less stable at higher speeds.

• Add weight, reducing the amount of cargo and total weight you can carry, and raise the vehicle’s center of gravity.

• Overload the vehicle’s electrical system capacity. Blowing a fuse may cause a loss of lights or engine power.

• Reduce the effectiveness of occupant protection systems, including the seatbelts and the Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS).

• Make it illegal to own or operate your vehicle. POLARIS-authorized spark arresters, mufflers, and emissions control components are mandatory for ownership or operation in many areas.

• Void your warranty.

The vehicle ROPS, when used with the seat belts and doors, provides a structure to help protect occupants. The structure will not protect occupants in all rollovers or accidents.

For more information about safety, contact an authorized dealer or visit the Polaris website at www.polaris.com.

Make sure operators are 16 or older with a valid driver’s license. Just because a teenager has a license does not mean that they will make good judgments about driving and avoid risk taking.

POLARIS recommends that you supervise younger drivers. Set rules and put limits on how, when, and where they are allowed to use this vehicle. For example, young drivers may need to have an adult in the vehicle with them and not be allowed to drive with their friends in the vehicle.

Make sure all riders fit the vehicle. Be sure that the driver and all passengers are able to:

• sit with their backs against their seat,

• adjust the seat belt to fit properly,

• have both feet flat on the floor, and

• have both hands on the steering wheel or on a passenger hand hold.

Do not allow children who need child safety seats or booster seats to ride in the vehicle. The vehicle is not designed to restrain automotive child safety seats.

You are responsible for your passengers. Be sure passengers are seated properly, belted, holding the passenger hand hold, and ready to brace. Unrestrained riders can fall out or be thrown around and from a moving vehicle.

Every person must be properly seated and belted in their own seat. Two people should never be belted into a single seat belt. People belted together can crash into one another in a collision and be seriously injured. Never carry passengers in the cargo bed as they could be thrown against or out of the vehicle or come into contact with moving parts.

Do not let people drive or ride after using alcohol or drugs.

Before starting off, always perform the Pre-Ride Inspection. Failure to inspect and verify that the vehicle is in safe operating condition increases the risk of an accident, which can lead to serious injury or death.

Improper tire maintenance can lead to loss of control and an accident, which could result in serious injury or death. To reduce your risk of injury:

• Maintain POLARIS recommended tire pressure. Check pressure before operating. Even if your vehicle has only been driven a short distance, the tire pressure readings can become higher.

• Make sure tire pressures match the specifications listed in the table below.

• Only use the size and type of tires specified for this vehicle.

• Do not operate your vehicle with worn or damaged tires.

• Always follow your tire manufacturer’s instructions for maintenance.

Wear an approved helmet. Riding in this vehicle without wearing an approved helmet increases the risk of serious injury. For example, a helmet reduces your risk of injury from head strikes with the vehicle or other objects even if there is no crash.

Approved helmets in the USA and Canada bear a U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) label. Approved helmets in Europe, Asia, and Oceania bear the ECE 22.05 label. The ECE mark consists of a circle surrounding the letter E, followed by the distinguishing number of the country which has granted approval. The approval number and serial number will also be displayed on the label.

Use shatterproof goggles or a shatterproof helmet face shield. Such protective eyewear may reduce the risk of foreign material getting in your eyes and help prevent loss of vision.

POLARIS recommends wearing approved Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) that have markings indicating they are designed to standards such as:

• VESC 8

• V-8

• Z87.1

• CE

Additional protective clothing and gear that may be appropriate for your riding conditions includes:

• Always wear shoes when operating. Consider wearing sturdy over-the-ankle boots suitable for the terrain you will be riding in.

• Full-finger gloves can protect against wind, sun, cold, and objects. Choose gloves that fit snugly and allow fingers to move freely and grip on the steering wheel or hand holds.

• Consider long sleeves and long pants to help protect arms and legs.

• Long-term exposure to wind and engine noise can cause permanent hearing loss. Properly worn hearing protective devices such as earplugs can help prevent hearing loss. Check local laws or the rules of the riding area you are in before wearing hearing protection to make sure its use is permitted.

Always stay completely inside the vehicle and hold the steering wheel or hand holds. Body parts outside of the vehicle can be struck by passing objects or crushed during a rollover. Do not put any part of your body outside of the vehicle for any reason. Do not hold onto the ROPS frame or put any part of your body on the door.

Riding in this vehicle without closed and latched cab doors increases the risk of serious injury or death in the event of an accident or rollover. Always make sure all cab doors are closed and latched while riding in this vehicle.

Be sure riders pay attention and plan ahead. If you think or feel the vehicle may tip or roll, reduce your risk of injury:

• Keep a firm grip on the steering wheel or hand holds and brace yourself.

• Do not put any part of your body outside of the vehicle for any reason.

This vehicle is not designed to carry unrestrained pets. An unrestrained pet can be thrown about and injure riders, even during normal operation. When transporting pets, use a pet crate suitable for off-road use that is secured to the vehicle.

Fuels such as gasoline can be extremely flammable. To reduce the risk of serious injury or death, never carry fuel or other flammable liquids on this vehicle. Rollovers, crashes, rough riding, or changes in elevation or temperature may lead to fuel spilling or vapor release from portable containers. Hot vehicle parts can cause fires, even after the engine has been turned off.

Never exceed vehicle weight capacities. Overloading the vehicle or carrying cargo improperly will cause changes in stability and handling, which could cause loss of control or an accident. See the Specifications chapter for weight capacities.

Secure cargo in the cargo box as far forward, centered and as low as possible. When cargo cannot be positioned and secured in this way, operate with extra caution. Unsecured cargo can strike and injure riders, affect vehicle handling, and result in loss of control.

The weight of riders and cargo changes vehicle braking, handling, and stability. To avoid loss of control, turn gradually, operate at slower speeds, and avoid rougher or steeper terrain.

Drive Responsibly. This vehicle has higher ground clearance and other features to handle rugged terrain. It can be overturned in situations where some other vehicles may not. Abrupt maneuvers or aggressive driving, even on flat, open areas, can cause loss of control, rollovers, severe injury or death. To avoid loss of control and rollovers:

• Avoid abrupt maneuvers, sideways sliding, skidding, or fishtailing, and never do donuts.

• Slow down before entering turn.

• Avoid hard acceleration when turning, even from a stop.

High speed off-road operation
Driving off-road vehicles to test the limits of your skills or abilities can be very dangerous to you, passengers, and bystanders. Basic skills for driving a car, ATV, or other off-road vehicles do not equip drivers to safely attempt high speed off-road operation. Develop your skill gradually through training, practice, and experience with the various driving modes of this vehicle and the terrain in which you are operating. Always do a low speed reconnaissance run (prerun) to become aware of anything you may encounter.

High speed off-road operation can lead to loss of control, crashes, or hard landings that can seriously injure occupants (even without rolling the vehicle or damaging it).

If you plan on using the vehicle for high speed, off-road competition, additional safety equipment may be necessary. Check the rules that apply to your competition.

Do not go over jumps — going airborne can lead to serious injury or death. Going airborne can cause loss of control, rollovers, or crashing into the ground and may damage the vehicle. Even without crashing, landings can be hard enough to cause any vehicle suspension to fully compress (e.g., bottom out). Serious injuries, including spinal injuries, can occur even if riders are properly harnessed, wearing helmets and the vehicle is not damaged and remains upright.

You may encounter slopes, "jumps", or other terrain features that could send the vehicle airborne, depending on your speed. These may be defectively designed, poorly maintained, or not suitable for this vehicle. Slow down, use extra care, and avoid going airborne. Never take this vehicle over jumps.

Watching someone else go over a jump or go airborne does not mean you can safely do so. Polaris cannot determine whether any jump you may encounter is appropriate for this vehicle. Any jump, even a small one, could be poorly maintained, designed, or not suitable for this vehicle and may cause serious injury or death.

Plan for hills, rough terrain, ruts, and other changes in traction and terrain. Proceed slowly and with extra care on unfamiliar terrain. Avoid paved surfaces. Sudden changes in terrain such as holes, depressions, banks, softer or harder ground, or other irregularities may cause loss of control or rollover. Give yourself time to react to rocks, bumps, or holes that may be hard to see. Operating in deep snow or tall grass may make it harder to see obstacles.

If you cannot go around an obstacle, such as a fallen tree or a ditch, stop the vehicle in a safe place. Get out to inspect the area thoroughly. Look from both your approach side and exit side. If you are reasonably confident you can continue safely, choose the path that will allow you to go straight over the obstacle to minimize the vehicle tipping sideways. Go only fast enough to maintain your momentum, but still give yourself plenty of time to react to changes in conditions. If there is any question about your ability to maneuver safely over the obstacle, you should turn around if the ground is flat and you have the room, or back up until you find a less difficult path.

Abrupt application of the accelerator pedal can cause the tires to lose traction, reducing control of the vehicle and increasing the possibility of an accident, especially while on sloped terrain or while crossing obstacles such as rocks or logs.

Avoid Operating on Public Roads (Paved or Otherwise). This vehicle does not have highway safety features that on-road vehicles may have (air bags, anti-lock brakes, stability control, etc.). If another vehicle collides with you, the likelihood of a serious injury or death may be greater. Also, you may not be able to avoid a crash or rollover if you make sudden or abrupt maneuvers such as swerving or emergency braking.

While it may be legal locally to drive on some public roads in specific parts of the country, your vehicle was not designed or certified as an on-road motor vehicle. Polaris does not support public road use except as may be necessary to cross roads designated for connecting off highway vehicle trail segments. If you must drive on-road, drive slowly and defensively. Your vehicle may lack the features needed to comply with state or local laws that permit limited public road use. Modifications you make to your vehicle to meet these requirements may void the vehicle warranty. In addition, refer to tire manufacturer’s instructions or limitations for on-road operation, including speed limits and premature tire wear.

Improperly operating on hills can cause loss of control, rollover, or accident, which can lead to serious injury or death. Use extra care when operating on hills. Plan for rough terrain, ruts, and other changes in traction and terrain.

Driving up hills
Check the terrain before ascending a hill and make sure it is not too slippery or loose. Engage all-wheel drive for hills. Drive straight uphill, keeping speed and throttle steady. Avoid steep hills which can cause the vehicle to overturn.

Recovering from stalling on a hill
If the vehicle loses forward speed, apply the brakes gradually and stop. Do not attempt to turn the vehicle around. Instead, shift to reverse and allow the vehicle to slowly roll straight downhill. Apply light brake pressure to control speed.

Overtopping a hill
Slow down when you reach the crest of a hill. Never blindly go over the crest of a hill or a drop off at high speed. An obstacle, a sharp drop, or another vehicle or person could be on the other side of the hill.

Driving down hills
Check the terrain before descending a hill and make sure it is not too slippery or loose. Engage all-wheel drive and proceed slowly, applying the brakes lightly. Never descend a hill with the transmission in neutral or if the engine is turned off.

Avoid side hilling (riding across slopes)
If unavoidable, proceed slowly and with extra caution. Avoid obstacles and changes in terrain that could cause the vehicle to tip or slide. If it feels like the vehicle begins to tip or slide, immediately turn downhill.

Riding near wooded areas or brush
Use extra caution when operating near trees, particularly when operating on narrow trails. Tree branches or brush can be driven into the cab striking or stabbing occupants.

Riding in snow
Always keep the brake and accelerator pedals free of snow and ice. Apply the brakes frequently to prevent ice or snow accumulation on the brake pads which can reduce brake performance.

Riding on ice
Never operate the vehicle on a frozen body of water unless you have verified that the ice can support the weight of the vehicle. Severe injury or death can result if the vehicle falls through the ice.

Riding in water / Falling into water
Operating through deep or fast-flowing water can cause loss of traction, loss of control, overturning, or being swept away in water. You can be seriously injured or killed from entrapment and drowning. Never operate the vehicle in fast-flowing water or in water that exceeds the floor level of the vehicle. Avoid sharp drop-offs and large rocks. Choose a path that provides an entrance and exit point with gradual inclines. Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. After leaving water, test the brakes. Apply them lightly several times while driving slowly. The friction will help dry out the pads.

Riding on sand dunes
Use extra caution when operating on or near dunes. Be alert for changes in terrain. Never blindly go over the crest of a hill or a drop-off at high speed. An obstacle, a sharp drop, or another vehicle or a person could be on the other side of the hill.

Riding in low-visibility conditions
Use extra caution and drive slowly in conditions of reduced visibility such as fog, rain, and darkness.

Plan ahead to avoid the need for evasive maneuvers, such as swerving. Hitting an obstacle — including wildlife — you are not ready for can be dangerous. Choosing to swerve instead can be even more dangerous because it can lead to loss of control, rollover, or collisions.

When operating in areas with possibility of wildlife appearing in your path, plan ahead to avoid swerving for animals if doing so could result in collisions or rollovers. Go slowly or avoid driving during seasons or times of day when animals such as deer are more likely to cross your path without warning.

Avoid Collisions With Other Vehicles
When following another vehicle or operating in the same area as others, keep a safe distance to avoid collisions. Allow extra space when sight distances are limited by dust, snow, curves, hills, or other conditions. Plan ahead to avoid having to swerve or leave the trail to avoid a collision.

On trails, be prepared to make space for other vehicles to pass. If you need to stop on a trail, move your vehicle to the edge of the path to allow others to pass safely.

Correct a skid by turning the steering wheel in the direction of the skid.
Never apply the brakes during a skid.

If the vehicle begins to slide downhill or you feel it may tip, turn downhill immediately and stop. Maneuver slowly and carefully until you can drive straight downhill.

Do not continue driving if your vehicle may be damaged or if you were in a crash or rollover.
Operating the vehicle while damaged or after a crash or rollover can cause loss of control, rollover, or accident, which can lead to serious injury or death. If you cannot safely transport the vehicle on your own, contact a recovery and towing service.

After any crash, rollover, or other accident, have a POLARIS dealer inspect the vehicle for possible damage, including seat belts, ROPS, brakes, suspension, and steering systems.

Be prepared in case your vehicle becomes damaged or disabled, especially in remote areas. Consider in advance how to get help and stay safe until it arrives whenever you ride.

The vehicle does not have a tow hitch and is not designed to tow another vehicle for any distance.
Towing can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss of control.

There is a recovery tow loop at the front and back of the vehicle to attach a winch or strap.
Use these loops to recover this vehicle if it is stuck, to pull it onto a tow truck, trailer, or to use this vehicle to recover another vehicle. These loops are for emergency recovery only and are not for towing vehicles to another location.

Improper recovery may lead to loss of control or vehicle damage. Only attach straps to specified locations. Do not attach to any other point on the vehicle. Only recover a vehicle of equal or lesser size and weight. When recovering a disabled vehicle, place the disabled vehicle’s transmission in neutral. Do not move a disabled RZR faster than 10 mph (16 km/h).

Operating, Idling, Or Parking Near Combustible Materials
Engine, exhaust, and other vehicle components can be very hot during and after use. Do not idle or park the vehicle over anything that could contact the exhaust system and catch on fire, such as tall grass, weeds, brush, leaves, debris, or other tall ground cover. Do not let mud, grass, or other debris accumulate on the engine or exhaust system. Inspect and remove as needed.

Vehicle rollaway can cause serious injury or death. This vehicle can roll whenever the gear selector is not in the PARK (P) position. Always shift to PARK (P) when stopping the engine or leaving the vehicle. When leaving the vehicle on an incline is unavoidable, use extra care. If leaving the vehicle unattended, block the rear wheels on the downhill side and keep children, pets, and others away from the gear selector.

Before shifting into reverse, use extra care to make sure the area is clear of people or obstacles. When it’s safe to proceed, back slowly.

After operation, inspect the vehicle for damage and debris to make sure the vehicle can be safely stored and operated again. Some things to inspect include:

• Debris that could catch fire, such as mud/grass near the engine or exhaust system

• Damage to the suspension, steering, or any other part of the vehicle

• Tire condition, such as tread and sidewall damage

• Shock absorber assembly condition

Be sure to have any issues checked and problems fixed before operating again.

All engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a deadly gas. Breathing carbon monoxide can cause headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, confusion, and eventually death. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas which may be present even if you do not see or smell any engine exhaust. Deadly levels of carbon monoxide can collect rapidly, and you can quickly be overcome and unable to save yourself. Also, deadly levels of carbon monoxide can linger for hours or days in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas. If you experience any symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning, leave the area immediately, get fresh air, and SEEK MEDICAL TREATMENT.

• Do not run engine indoors. Even if you try to ventilate engine exhaust with fans or open windows and doors, carbon monoxide can rapidly reach dangerous levels.

• Do not run engine in poorly ventilated or partially enclosed areas such as barns, garages, or carports. If you start a vehicle in one of these, drive it out and close the door as soon as possible. If you drive it into one of these, turn it off as soon as possible.

• Do not run engine outdoors where engine exhaust can be drawn into a building through openings such as windows and doors.

Towing this vehicle is not recommended. Always transport the vehicle on a trailer or flatbed with all four wheels off the ground. See the Transporting the Vehicle section for details.

If towing a disabled vehicle is unavoidable, place the disabled vehicle’s transmission in neutral. Tow the shortest distance possible. Do not operate faster than 10 mph (16 kph).

The weight distribution of the cargo loaded onto the trailer is important and will have an impact on how the vehicle handles on the road. Ensure the weight of the cargo is distributed properly and the trailer is not rear, front, or side heavy.

Improperly trailering or attempting to tow this vehicle can result in serious injury or death. Improper transportation can also cause vehicle damage, which may involve parts flying off and creating road hazards for other motorists.

Face the vehicle forward.
When using a non-enclosed trailer, face the vehicle forward or remove the roof.

Always use a spotter if you are uncomfortable loading the vehicle on your own. A wheel chock or marker can also be used as an indication of how close you will park the vehicle from the front of the trailer.

Ensure everything in the vehicle is secure.
Walk around the vehicle and make sure:

• Doors are latched

• Front hood and storage compartments are locked

• Rear seat backs are latched

• Cargo is secured or removed

• Vehicle is in PARK (P)

Use designated tie down points.
This vehicle is equipped with four tie down points for transport. Route straps so that they cannot contact any part of the vehicle and become worn or loose during transport. Do not use winch to secure vehicle to trailer.

Towing this vehicle is not recommended.
Transport this vehicle on a trailer or flatbed with all four wheels off the ground. If it is unavoidable to tow this vehicle when it is disabled, place this vehicle’s transmission in NEUTRAL and tow the shortest distance possible. Do not tow this vehicle faster than 10 mph (16 km/h).

Use suitable tie downs.
Securing devices, such as tie down straps, are manufactured to support a maximum strength or load limit that can be applied during normal service. This is known as the Working Load Limit (WLL). Each tie-down strap must have a WLL exceeding the minimum WLL.

Warning labels have been placed on the vehicle for your protection. Read and follow the instructions of the labels on the vehicle carefully. If any of the labels depicted in this manual differ from the labels on your vehicle, always read and follow the instructions of the labels on the vehicle

Your POLARIS vehicle has a spark arrester that was tested and qualified to be in accordance with the USFS standard 5100-1C. Federal law requires that this spark arrester be installed and functional when the vehicle is operated on public lands.

Operation of off-road vehicles on public lands in the U.S.A. is regulated by 43 CFR 420. Violations are subject to monetary penalties. Federal regulations can be viewed online at www.ecfr.gov..

This engine is equipped with a closed crankcase system. Blow-by gases are forced back to the combustion chamber by the intake system. All exhaust gases exit through the exhaust system.

Exhaust emissions are controlled by engine design. An electronic fuel injection (EFI) system controls fuel delivery. The engine and EFI components are set at the factory for optimal performance and are not adjustable.

The emissions label is located on the left front frame of the vehicle.

This spark ignition system complies with Canadian ICES-002.

This vehicle complies with EMC requirements of UN ECE Regulation 10 and European directives 97/24/EC and 2004/108/EC.

Non-ionizing Radiation: This vehicle emits some electromagnetic energy. People with active or non-active implantable medical devices (such as heart monitoring or controlling devices) should review the limitations of their device and the applicable electromagnetic standards and directives that apply to this vehicle.

Any qualified repair shop or person may maintain, replace or repair the emission control devices or systems on your vehicle. An authorized POLARIS dealer can perform any service that may be necessary for your vehicle. POLARIS also recommends POLARIS parts for emissions-related service, however equivalent parts can be used.

It is a potential violation of the Clean Air Act if a part supplied by an aftermarket parts manufacturer reduces the effectiveness of the vehicle’s emission controls. Tampering with emission controls is prohibited by federal law.

Owners are responsible for performing the scheduled maintenance identified in this owner’s manual.

Careful periodic maintenance will help keep your vehicle in the safest, most reliable condition. Inspection, adjustment and lubrication of important components are explained in the periodic maintenance chart.

Inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust and replace parts as necessary. When inspection reveals the need for replacement parts, genuine POLARIS parts are available from your POLARIS dealer. Equivalent parts may be used for emissions-related service.

Service and adjustments are important for proper vehicle operation. If you're not familiar with safe service and adjustment procedures, a qualified dealer can perform these operations.

Vehicles subjected to heavy or severe use patterns must be inspected and serviced more frequently.

Severe Use Definition

• Frequent immersion in mud, water or sand

• Racing or race-style high RPM use

• Prolonged low speed, heavy load operation

• Extended idle

• Frequent short trip operation in cold weather (engine frequently does not operate long enough to reach full operating temperature)

Pay special attention to the oil level. A rise in oil level during cold weather can indicate contaminants collecting in the oil sump or crankcase. Change oil immediately if the oil level begins to rise. Monitor the oil level, and if it continues to rise, discontinue use and determine the cause. Your POLARIS dealer or other authorized person can assist.

Check and lubricate all components at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on Polaris Maintenance Schedule, or more often under severe use, such as wet or dusty conditions. Items not listed in the chart should be lubricated at the general lubrication interval.

Always check and change the fluid at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart section. Refer to the Gearcase Specifications Chart section for recommended lubricants, capacities and torque specifications.

Always check and change the fluid at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart. Refer to the Gearcase Specifications Chart for recommended lubricants, capacities and torque specifications.

Use of other fluids may result in improper operation of components. See the Polaris Products section for the part numbers.

If the engine stops or will not start, if the power steering stops working (if equipped), or if you experience other electrical failures, a fuse may need replacement. Locate and correct any short circuits that may have caused the blown fuse, then replace the fuse. The fuse/relay center 1 is located under the driver’s side console.

The engine coolant level is maintained by the recovery system. The recovery system components are the overflow bottle, radiator vent fitting, radiator pressure cap and connecting hose.

As coolant operating temperature increases, the expanding (heated) excess coolant is forced out of the radiator, past the pressure cap, and into the overflow bottle. As engine coolant temperature decreases, the contracting (cooled) coolant is drawn back up from the tank, past the pressure cap, and into the radiator.

Belt slip is responsible for creating excessive heat that destroys belts, wears clutch components and causes outer clutch covers to fail. Switch to low range while operating at slower speeds to extend the life of the PVT components (belt, cover, etc.).

Periodically clean the spark arrester to remove accumulated carbon. A plugged spark arrester will affect engine performance. Clean daily when driving in mud and water. Replace a cracked or damaged arrester before operating.

1. Remove the arrester retaining bolt 1 and nut 2.

2. Remove the arrester from the end of the muffler 3.

3. Use a non-synthetic brush to clean the arrester screen 4. A synthetic brush may melt if components are warm. If necessary, blow debris from the screen with compressed air.

4. Inspect the screen for wear and damage. Replace a worn or damaged screen.

5. Reinstall the arrester. Torque bolt to 9-11 ft. lbs. (12-15 Nm).

The front and rear brakes are hydraulic disc type brakes activated by the brake pedal.

Always check brake pedal travel and the brake fluid reservoir level before each use of the vehicle. When applied, the brake pedal should feel firm. Any sponginess would indicate a possible fluid leak or low brake fluid level, which must be corrected before riding. See the Brake Fluid section for further details.

If you discover any irregularities in brake system operation, including excessive pedal travel, contact your dealer for proper diagnosis and repairs.

Headlight and taillight lenses become dirty during normal operation. Clean all lights frequently to ensure a clear field of vision as well as visibility to other vehicles.

If it’s impossible to take your vehicle to a dealer before starting it, follow the steps outlined below.

1. Move the vehicle to dry land.

2. Check the air box. If water is present, dry the air box and replace the filter with a new filter.

3. Remove the fuse/relay center cover. Allow any moisture to dry, then reinstall the cover.

4. Dry the spark plug wells with a clean cloth, then remove the spark plugs.

5. Turn the engine over several times.

6. Dry the spark plugs and reinstall them, or install new plugs.

7. Attempt to start the engine. If necessary, repeat the drying procedure.

8. Take the vehicle in for service as soon as possible, whether you succeed in starting it or not. Your POLARIS dealer or other qualified person can provide the required service.

9. If water has been ingested into the PVT follow the procedure on PVT Drying for drying.

Check the steering wheel for specified freeplay and smooth operation at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart.

1. Position the vehicle on level ground.

2. Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right.

3. There should be 0.8-1.0 in (20-25 mm) of freeplay.

4. If there is excessive freeplay or strange noises, or if the steering feels rough or “catchy,” have the steering system inspected by an authorized POLARIS dealer or other qualified personnel.

Your vehicle has a low-maintenance battery. Always keep battery terminals and connections free of corrosion. If cleaning is necessary, remove the corrosion with a stiff wire brush. Wash with a solution of one tablespoon baking soda and one cup water. Rinse well with tap water and dry off with clean shop towels. Coat the terminals with dielectric grease or petroleum jelly.
